DO... Keep your real estate agent and loan officer informed
of any changes to your credit, income and debts.

DO... Ask questions

DON’T… Make a job change without inquiring about the impact
it will have on your loan qualification.

DON’T… Make any major purchases prior to closing on your
loan. Taking on new debts or even
increasing current balances on revolving credit accounts can have a negative
impact on your credit score and qualifying ratios.

DON’T… Move the source of your down payment without proper
documentation or make any unexplained deposits in any of your accounts for 60
days prior to closing.

DON’T... Forget there is a difference between what you can
qualify for and what you may be comfortable paying. Qualifying for a higher
payment does not mean you should overspend.
